　　Guan Si Green Tea

　　Green tea, also known as unfermented tea, is made from the fresh shoots of suitable tea plants through typical processes such as fixation, rolling, and drying. Its dry leaves, brewed tea liquor, and leaf base are predominantly green in color, hence the name.

　　The characteristics of green tea preserve a higher amount of natural substances from the fresh leaves. Among them, tea polyphenols and caffeine are retained at over 85% of the levels in fresh leaves, chlorophyll at around 50%, and there is also relatively little loss of vitamins. This results in the distinctive qualities of green tea: "clear soup, green leaves, and a strongly astringent taste." The latest scientific research shows that the natural substances preserved in green tea have special effects in preventing aging, cancer, and bacterial infections, as well as anti-inflammatory properties, surpassing those of other types of tea.

　　Among Chinese green teas, there is the greatest variety of famous varieties. Not only do they boast a high aroma, long-lasting flavor, and excellent quality, but they also feature unique shapes and hold high artistic appreciation value. Based on their drying and fixation methods, green teas are generally divided into pan-fired, baked, sun-dried, and steamed green teas.
